Cryptocurrencies and the underlying blockchain technology are changing the DNA of global finance. Their considerable disruption is accelerating how Central Banks rethink the very nature of money and is driving bankers to reimagine the features of currencies so that they stay relevant in an increasingly diverse market.

Forbes and Celo will assemble central bank leaders, private banking executives, and firms actively involved in planning/building this critical and evolving technology. They will explore the design decisions that central banks are making and how this new breed of money will provide security, foster trust, and move across borders.
